Magazine’s 5000 fastest growing companies for 2012.This is the fourth year that Accolo has had the honor of being included in this prestigious list of companies which has included famous brands such as Levi Strauss, Facebook, Jamba Juice, Microsoft, Under Armor and many other companies that have become household names.

“It’s a real pleasure to be recognized once again in Inc.’s 5000 fastest growing companies,” said John Younger, President and CEO of Accolo. “While the expansion of our company in itself is rewarding, there’s nothing like a little notice for all of the hard work that we’ve been putting in here at Accolo. We’re having an exciting year with LinkedIn co-founder Konstantin Guericke joining our board and the launch of the industry’s first Elevated RPO solution in addition to the growth of our RPO business. We anticipate more success in the years to come and hope to be included among Inc.’s fastest growing businesses again as a 5th time honoree, which would earn us a place on Inc. Magazine’s ‘Honor Roll’.”

Despite the current challenges of the global business environment, private U.S. based companies like Accolo continue to expand and think toward a better future. “To rank among the 2012 Inc. 5000, [Accolo] had to thrive through three of the toughest years this economy has seen in living memory. Your success in such times is eloquent testimony to your team’s creativity, resilience and tenacity,” stated Eric Schurenberg, Editor in Chief at Inc. Magazine. “You should be proud of all Accolo has achieved to date. I wish you many more years of success.”
